Gaius meets Cicero

Gaius Meets Cicero. Law and Rhetoric in the School Controversies sheds new light on a much debated issue in the field of Roman law, i.e. the so-called 'school controversies' between the Sabinians and the Proculians. Tessa Leesen rejects the general assumption in modern literature that the two schools each adhered to a fundamentally different theoretical conception of law. She argues that the 'school controversies' as described in Gaius' Institutiones arose in legal practice when the heads of the two schools were consulted by two conflicting parties and each gave opposing advice. In order to make their opinions persuasive, the jurists were in need of adequate arguments. For this purpose, they made use of rhetoric and of the argumentative theory of topoi as described in Cicero's Topica.
Tessa G. Leesen, Ph.D. (2009) in Roman Law, Tilbug University, is study advisor at the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium. On the subject of the school controversies, she has also published 'Produced and Bottled in Rome - Who Owned the Wine? The Controversy about Specificatio' in Revue Internationale des Droits de l'Antiquité (2006).
